I got popped for the reflector issue a while back in Arizona. He even commented they were put in the wrong place....by Freightliner!
My boss said "I thought that wasn't a voilation unless you were bobtailling."
Got a level 2 out of the deal. What's funny is the officer failed to notice, and I didn't notice it until I got back to El Paso, that our trailer inspection sticker expired the month BEFORE the inspection!

CA DOT put me OOS for "emergency cross tubings worn to the 2nd color"...Turns out they were one color(red) tubes and once I showed them to my shop, they couldn't find any wear...

Back when I was driving a reefer, another guy got a ticket in MA because the drain on his trailer was spraying fish juice on the road. It was a huge fine, can't remember how much. Apparently he was polluting...

I have a plate on the back of my tractor. I just got written up last Wednesday for failure to pay UCR in La.

WOW thanks for the information, I didn't realize you knew ever single cop out there. I have a couple of friends that I have known for 15 plus years that are cops, I guess I should not be going hunting, camping or hanging out with them anymore. What was I thinking trusting them with the most valuable things in my life ... my family and there safety. And I bet in your mind all truck drivers are nasty, lazy, good for nothing POS, except you of course, cause I'm sure your a perfect driver and have the fingerless gloves and your wallet on a chain to prove it.
